Bookkeeping Business – How Serious Are You?

Posted in Bookkeeping Clients by Beancounter @ May 26, 2010

You’ve started your bookkeeping business, and you’re struggling to find bookkeeping clients.

I Just Want Bookkeeping clients

“Please help me, I just want some bookeeping clients” – is a common theme to emails we receive from bookkeepers, whether they’ve been in business for a while, or just starting out.

Bookkeeping Business -  How Serious Are You?We were working with Kirsty for a while, helping her get her bookkeeping business started.

One of the biggest challenges she had was her perception of her business.

No matter how hard we tried to explain to her, or show her about the foundations of her business, she was stuck in a mind-set that was stopping her from gaining bookkeeping clients.

If you think you can, or you think you can’t, you’re probably right!
This works for many aspects of your life. Once you make a decision to do something, and you’re really serious about doing it, stopping you can be pretty hard – right?

So if you are having challenges finding bookkeeping clients, then maybe you need to have another look at yourself, and what you are doing.

Debi has been bookkeeping for many years, and approached us for help in finding bookkeeping clients. She’s been advertising in the local paper and getting no results.

We found her three clients in a week, and shown her ways to increase her income. Is she happy? Of course she is – and is looking at her bookkeeping business in a whole new light.

You want to know how we helped Debi find three new bookkeeping clients in a week? We helped her by using principles discussed in our Ebook “Secrets To Finding Bookkeeping Clients”

“But I don’t want to buy another book, I just want some bookkeeping clients!” Yes, we know, you’re thinking “They just want to make money out of me by selling a book!” . What if, just by some fluke of chance, you picked up a tiny piece of information in that book that led you to finding a new client? What if that client started out being only a couple of hours a week?

What if that client was expanding their organisation, and ten years later you were stilll working with that client you’d earned in excess of $200,000 from that one initial appointment?

Nahhhh ! Never happens!! Well it has happened, we still have that client (amongst many others).

So if you’re reading this because you need help finding book – keeping clients, then order your copy our Ebook “Secrets To Finding Bookkeeping Clients”
Finding Bookkeeping Clients We offer a 100% money back guarantee, so if you believe that there’s no information in the book that you can use, then send us an email with your account details, and we’ll send you a refund.

Bookkeeping Clients: Who Needs Them!

Posted in Bookkeeping Clients by Beancounter @ Mar 1, 2010

Every freelance independant bookkeeper needs bookkeeping clients!

It’s always interesting meeting a small business owner who’s just decided to take the plunge and outsource their bookkeeping.

When it comes to having a handle on their finances, many small business owners just don’t know what they don’t know!!

By that, they just have no idea about having a system for their bookkeeping or getting their finances in order. It’s amazing how some businesses survive in such a state of disorder

That’s where you come in. As bookkeepers we can help the client by making suggestions to improve or even establish a bookkeeping system.

The first step may be something as straightforward as suggesting that they should consider opening a seperate bank account for their business rather than using their personal bank account.

You may need to set them up with a simple system of manila folders for bank statements unpaid / paid bills etc

There’s some clients that seem to take years to grasp the fact that by them spending a couple of extra minutes on completing their documentation correctly before they file it, they’ll end up saving so much money on bookkeeping fees.

When they final realise that you’ve been working to save them money, they’ll thank you (perhaps with a sheepish grin)!

It’s moments like that when your bookkeeping clients understand that they that need you more than you need them!
